Comedian Jack Dee is a man of many hidden talents.

In his new book 'What Is Your Problem?', Jack assumes the role of Agony Uncle for the masses, giving advice on everything from dealing with your nosey neighbours to choosing the right hat for a balding head.

This morning, Jack joined The Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show to talk about the book and the inspiration behind it.

He told Ian about the grueling three-hour course he took to qualify as a psychotherapist in preparation for his writing.

He also spoke about how he developed his signature dead-pan approach to stand-up.
